Challenges for banks in applying blockchain up for discussion

The Vietnam Banks Association (VNBA) held a seminar on October 26 entitled “Opportunities and challenges to apply blockchain to operations in the banking and financial sector”. A representative from Vietcombank pointed out the many obstacles for banks in applying blockchain, including the high cost of research and infrastructure investment and the long period needed to synchronize transition with other systems. A TPBank representative said it is necessary for banks to pilot a sandbox to successfully apply blockchain.
